If you choose to mail your tax payment:

  • Make your check, money order or cashier's check payable to U.S. Treasury.
    • Please note: Do not send cash through the mail. If you prefer cash payment, see "More Information" below.
  • Enter the amount using all numbers ($###.##).
  • Do not use staples or paper clips to affix your payment to your voucher or return.
  • Make sure your check or money order includes the following information:
    • Your name and address
    • Daytime phone number
    • Social Security number (the SSN shown first if it's a joint return) or employer identification number
    • Tax year
    • Related tax form or notice number
  • Mail your payment to the address listed on the notice or instructions, or consult the table below.
